A barely altered play on "Which Way Western Man?" a foundational white nationalist text arguing Jews, racial mixing & equality are destroying society. DHS prev tweeted in August. It required no interpretation, but the media's role was to pretend it was a Rorschach test and help surface WH denials.

Bigotry against trans athletes was always going to be approved by SCOTUS and yesterday's arguments left no doubt.
But what starts on the field never stays on the field. Republicans are testing the waters for new victims of their cruelty.

The Supreme Court Just Held an Anti-Trans Hatefest
The court’s hearing on state bans on trans athletes in women’s sports was not a serious legal exercise. It was bigotry masquerading as law.

I spoke with @wired.com about how if local elected officials want to protect their community from ICE attacks, one of the most important things they can do is roll back city-level surveillance programs and restrict law enforcement use of Flock, facial recognition, etc www.wired.com/story/what-t...

We are far past the stage of permissiveness with white-supremacist violence inside DHS. We are witnessing ICE transition into a death squad.

This cannot be reformed. The only question is who will fight to abolish it, and who will accommodate it instead.

Minnesota is just the beginning of ICE's transformation into a right-wing death squad. But it can be the end

Last year, a movie about a family torn apart under a fascist American regime came and went.

You probably didn't even know it existed — but now 'Anniversary' is available to stream, and worth watching.
